Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Yes, this condition is like other non obstructive disease. But management of this condition is possible.

Here sertoli cells can only differentiates and other cells never differentiates.

You can manage it by sperm retrieval through testicular sperm extraction (mTESE), micro-surgical testicular sperm extraction (mTESE), or testicular biopsy.

On retrieval of viable sperm this could be used in Intracytoplasmic Sperm injection on ovum.

So you can become father by this method also.


I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
